I must admit, chapters eight and nine were equivalent to caressing elderly  
dirt.  Being an English teacher, who actually covers grammar in this  
half-stepping New York City school system, I am still recuperating from these  
very "technical sections"; nevertheless, I will remain as optimistic as  
possible.

Anywhich, after just tutoring someone today, I  noticed I already ask 
"around" the problem, rather than solely pointing it  out and creating a "dead 
end" solution.  I also have my students relate  such problems to the overall 
essays/papers.  Here I use the Bedford  Guide's revision section (since I 
like that text better) into three  categories: "Overall Gist" (Global 
Revision), "Rewriting" (Sentence-level  Revision) and "Editing" (Editing and 
Proofreading" for all the tedious leftovers  their eyes desire to feast on.

Since we all know reading aloud eliminates  many of the slipshod 
grammatical and syntactical errors, I picked up on  creating physics-like symbols for 
punctuation solutions.  How else do  you all work with sentence-level and 
punctuation  errors?
